My posts keep timing out, so that's why text is at end.

This was LotR game w friend who owns the FLGS. We were both rusty but huge fans of the rules.  Forces were just thrown down to look fun with no points comparison. In the end Rohan won pretty handily due to winning every priority roll from turn three on. Also Gandalf's risky gambit to charge the Nazgul even after failing his Immobilize not only paid off but he wounded AND the wraith rolled a one on his Fate!

I need to find a pick of the Orc banner man who defeated and killed a charging mounted  Royal Guard in single combat.

All figs are from my collection and I painted 95% or more myself. Terrain is a mix of my own, stuff I did on commission for the shop, and stock shop items.

Excellent looking game and nice tables!  I've tried these rules once and have been wanting to try them again for some time.

Looks like a great game and a great place to play a game.  Where is this great looking FLGS?

Audrey, nice to "hear" from you!  ;)  What about the Forsaken rules? And where currently is the Amulet of Amathra

I agree. I know little of the LotR game, but it looks great and sounds like fun.

Just about the right number of mounted riders.  ;)

A lovely looking game. Can't help but love a bit of LoTR.  :D

And here I figured everyone has long forgotten about that or suffered horror/zombie burnout.
